I also felt deeply that as bad as the U.S. fiscal and monetary policy is, the political corruption and cultural divide in our country is an even greater threat. Throughout my campaign, I have seen our party struggle to find a place for a new vision while weighing the corrupt allegations and indictments against President Trump. He will need everyone\u2019s support, and he will have mine moving forward.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Binkley, the co-founder and current CEO\/president of Generational Equity Group, a merger and acquisitions business advisory firm in Texas, announced his bid in April of last year.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Currently our nation is lost, divided, and in financial trouble. Here\u2019s the good news: united, we can rise to change it as we restore our faith in God, freedom, and each other,\u2019 Binkley\u2019s website says.<\/p>\n<p>He withdrew his 2024 bid for the White House after less than a year on the campaign trail.\u00a0Binkley\u2019s campaign focused on issues like immigration reform and border controls, boosting the economy, privatizing health care, utilizing cheap energy sources like nuclear energy and supporting pro-life policies.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018While it is time for me to go back to my family, business, and church and care for the responsibilities I have been given, I remain steadfast in my commitment to my plans for the economy, border security, and healthcare,\u2019 Binkley\u2019s message continued Tuesday. \u2018I look forward to considering other ways I can make an impact and promote my policy positions.\u00a0Thank you again for being with us on this journey. Let\u2019s continue to pray for our nation, and our leaders. When we look to each other for wisdom and strength, our future can be better than we can imagine. I look forward to seeing what tomorrow holds.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Fox News\u2019 Andrew Murray contributed to this report.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>This post appeared first on FOX NEWS<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Republican presidential candidate Ryan Binkley dropped out of the race on Tuesday and immediately endorsed former President Trump. \u2018Today, I am suspending my campaign for the Presidency of the United States of America and offering my endorsement and unwavering support for President Trump,\u2019 Binkley wrote on X.
